North Darfur State, Administrative state in western Sudan

North Darfur spans 493,180 square kilometers of territory, with the Marrah Mountains rising above seasonal watercourses and expansive plains.

The region transformed from an independent sultanate to Anglo-Egyptian control in 1916, marking a shift in regional governance structures.

The population speaks multiple languages including Arabic, Fur, Zaghawa, and Masalit, reflecting the presence of different ethnic communities.

The capital Al-Fashir functions as an administrative center, though access to many areas remains restricted due to security conditions.

The region experiences seasonal water flows through wadis, creating temporary rivers that shape agricultural patterns during rainfall periods.
